Use of compost for Industrial Farming

Increasing yield in industrial farming is mostly dependent on the content of organic matter In soil.

Compost is a slow-release, long-lasting organic fertilizer. By using compost, a farmer is increasing soil productivity for at least 3-4 years.

Planting and transplanting, orchard/vineyard planting

When planting or transplanting in the open ground fill the hole with the mix of soil and compost – 1 part of compost to 2 parts of native soil.

Vineyard

Apply around 12 to 18 tons of compost per hectare. For the next 2-3 years only half the amount mentioned above is necessary, then re-apply 12-18 tons per 1 hectare.

Compost can be applied at the bases of plants or between rows. After application incorporate compost into soil.

Fruit, hazelnut, almond and citrus trees

Compost must be applied at a rate of 3 to 4 kg. per plant. After applying compost around the base of the plant, incorporate compost into the soil.

Wheat, corn

In case of corn and wheat 15 tons of compost must be applied on average. Compost should be applied before tillage with compost/manure spreader.

Vegetables

Following rates are suitable for certain vegetable crops:

• Asparagus - 7-8 tons of compost per hectare
• Tomatoes - 8-10 tons of compost per hectare
• Carrots - 9-12 tons of compost per hectare
• Onions - 10-15 tons of compost per hectare
• Cauliflower - 12-20 tons of compost per hectare

Berries

In case of berries apply 10-15 tons of compost per hectare.

Potatoes

10-15 tons of compost should be applied per hectare. Compost must be applied before tillage.

Compost use for home/garden

Plant needs organic fertilizer for healthy growth and development. This is why compost is one of the best and most affordable organic fertilizers.

The source of mineral nourishment for plant can be either chemical or organic.

The use of chemical fertilizers has some drawbacks:

  • Chemical fertilizer effect is short-lived.
  • When using chemical fertilizer there is a risk of its accumulation in the fruit
  • Different plants need different specific chemical fertilizers
  • Plant needs different fertilizers on different stages of its development.

Therefore, chemical fertilizers are costly and require specific knowledge.

Using natural compost is the perfect solution in this case.

Compost is:

  • Long-term natural food for plants
  • Plant obtains required amounts of nutrients from compost according to its own needs and stages of development, be it growth/vegetation, flowering or fruiting.

Due to its long lasting beneficial effect, compost has no better alternative.

Compost is functional and potent in soil for 3 to 4 years after its application.

Plant nutrition is the most crucial aspect for developing healthy and beautiful flower garden.

Garden and especially pot flowers and plants use nutrients in soil at very high rates.

Newly planted plants need weekly applications of chemical fertilizers.

Instructions for using compost as a landscape mulch for trees and shrubs

Applying compost mulch to and around the plant greatly reduces water evaporation from the soil, reduces soil erosion, reduces growth of weeds around the plant and also reduces temperature fluctuations in the soil.

Compost increases organic matter levels in the soil and thus increases soil’s productivity.

During cold seasons compost mulch retains soil heat which in turn protects the root system of a plant, promotes rapid root growth in Spring and prevents soil from drying out in Summer.
